Driving down the A57 into Sheffield there is an obvious "Stone" set in the moors on the south of the road. This is the Head Stone. Given this is situated on the outskirts of Sheffield this area is not very busy and many days you can be on your own on the Hallam Moors. This route takes the walker from the edge of Sheffield to the Head Stone, and back around Redmires Reservoirs.
